Is Guava Pastry Halal?
MUSHBOOH
It contains an emulsifier whose fat source is not stated; it could be plant-based or animal-based, including pork. A plant note, vegetarian claim, or halal mark would settle it.
Jafari, Zaydi — their opinion: an unstated source does not have to be investigated, so it is allowed.
Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi, Hanbali, Ibadi — their opinion: the fat could be pork, so a plant or halal source must be confirmed; processing does not change its ruling.
